Political tension has increased in Israel after election results, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud party accusing Arab-led parties of alleged irregularities.

With more than 93 percent of votes counted in Israel’s general election, Netanyahu’s bloc is estimated at 53 seats, short of a majority.

Israel’s October 27 election is tied to Benjamin Netanyahu’s future, but a change in power may not bring major relief for Palestinians.
